Its neat looking and all....but why spend all that money on something that appears to have a lot of wasted space on the front of a building that will probably need updates in the next 10 to 20 years given its 1990 opening. I guess I would have put other things higher on the priority list.

I wouldn’t even say it looks cool. It already looks dated and it isn’t even complete yet. I feel like this is going to be an eyesore on campus and is going to stand out in a bad way from other campus fixtures.

Was suppose to happen earlier, but Covid pushed it back. Will eventually be attached to a new parking deck, and the parking lot will be turned into Greenway. Article said it would add 30-50 years to the building.

I think it will look just fine, but there are other buildings in dire need of updates. Not sure why Peacock was a priority.

The building was completed in 1991, with only a minor expansion of classroom, office and multi-use space since then.

Conversely, App has seen a significant increase in the number of the number of business students…especially during the last 15 yrs. The 2013 academic year shows a COB enrollment of ~2,300 students. By Spring of 2025, that number swelled to ~4,500.

Was going to say I know the extra room is needed, that building seemed small when there were 12k undergrad students, now it has to seem like a sardine can.
